Day of Dávid in Hungary. This name comes from the Bible.
When the winter doesn’t want to come the sunshine will break through. Its weak..it is still cold…but definitely shining and dancing among the little flowers on the field creating a rainbow. I guess she wanna tease the clouds and the field will be covered with a lot of snow soon.

Esztergom, this was the blue sky in Winter? Aren’t you surprise too?
Yesterday was foggy, but when I woke up the next morning, there were ‘DéR‘ on the neighbour’s car, on the trees, on the roofs and even on the ground. At about 2pm, it started to snow very lightly, like icing sugar:) only for about few minutes…but hey, it was a pleasant surprise!! ;D

Day of Kamilla in Hungary. This name refers to a flower with healing power.
In your comments you refer to the blue Duna. I really like this river. It’s the biggest river in our country coming from Germany from the Black Forest. I’ve been there a couple of years ago and I saw a signboard showing to the river Duna. I went there and it was so small that I could step over it with my long legs.:) It was strange to see this river that I knew so well being ‘a baby’:) After Germany, the river crosses Austria. In Vienna, it is still a not too wide river and I guess the first city where it appears as a real river is Pozsony (Bratislava) in Slovakia. Leaving Pozsony the river runs to the east providing the borderline between Hungary and Slovakia. Then suddenly, at close to Visegrád it turns to the south and reaches Budapest dividing the city to two parts…Pest and Buda. It then leaves the country in the south as a really wide, huge river to Serbia and then to Romania and Bulgaria when it finally gets home….to the Black Sea. An amazing journey from the Black Forest to the Black Sea.

In Hungarian, it is called ‘Dunakanyar’. I like this shot of the curve of the Danube in Hungary, which is close to the city of Visegrád. It is a small town in Pest County in Hungary. We drove towards the north of Budapest on the right bank of the Danube to see this Danube Bend. This place is famous for the remains of the Early Renaissance summer palace of King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary and the medieval citadel. It was a fortress for protecting the town, with a castle in its middle:)
One thing for sure, the feeling of taking a photo at this height is really, really amazing! We were also surprised that it was a day with blue sky (I will show in my next coming post on the 29.12.06, the Esztergom) and sunshine, rather surprising for the Winter season;)

One of the most thoughtful Christmas presents was from Szilvia (Zsolt’s sister)…It was a Culinaria book of Hungary! (Read here for 27pages of excerpts of this wonderful book). And the mentioned of the various cuisine that she had prepared for Christmas or for even the wonderful lunches and dinners for all of our weekend visits – the clever use of Paprika…I read on this present from her that the reason why the Hungarian’s paprika are the best, that’s because of it’s thin skin thus easy to digest plus it is exceptionally SWEET!
As I dun normally celebrate xmas like this, first with the traditional putting up and decorating the REAL christmas tree, with home cooked christmas dinner, lots of cakes, cookies – all were hand made!!…and this is definitely the MOST heartwarming christmas I ever had….In the wintery cold climate of 1 degree Celsius, but its lots of warmth in my heart:)

Day of Adam and Eva in Hungary.
This is Eszter on the photo helping us to decorate the Christmas tree. Without her logistical help, we couldnt finish decorating the tree so fast.:) The result and the reaction of little Tomi you can see here.
